Update and clarify ssl_ciphers default

- Write HIGH:MEDIUM instead of DEFAULT:!LOW:!EXP for clarity.
- Order 3DES last to work around inappropriate OpenSSL default.
- Remove !MD5 and @STRENGTH, because they are irrelevant.
- Add clarifying documentation.

Effectively, the new default is almost the same as the old one, but it
is arguably easier to understand and modify.
